I had some little fabric pieces from Walmart . I decided to make a few pillows to give some happy touches of red (since winter is often a gray time---however also often sunny here in SC!)

    I find your list encouraging!

  3. I love that your sewing machine is a "Hello Kitty" style, Nanny Kim! That would make me feel happy every time I saw it. The pillows you made are very pretty and so are the little pecan wreaths. There are so many good ideas on Pinterest -- that web site also makes me happy as it's so much fun to browse!

    Have a good weekend full of many thankful moments!
